lol internet
Did you hear about that hot new internet blog, "
Stuff White People Like"? Did someone email or GChat you a link to it? Or did
many people? Chances are you either had a knowing chuckle or got all huffy about it, as those seem to be most people's responses. We've gone through the criticisms both whiny—I'm white and I'm nothing like this!—and smart—boy their definition of "
white people" is offensively narrow and classist—and now we're sick of those too, even though we sort of agree with them but also are all "lay off, it's a stupid blog." There's the fucking rub: we dislike the site
and are sick of everyone disliking the site. Which is why we were so excited to see that they got
ten zillion dollars to turn it into a book! A book about hockey, and Miracle Whip! Except not really, because only like
middle American White People like those things, see, and there's that class argument we didn't want to get into. No, this book is actually about
Juno or some such bullshit.
